This page contains information on books in which Causley shares the content with one or more other poets.

Causley’s poems have appeared in hundreds of anthologies, and it neither practical nor sensible to list all of these. The following list is therefore limited to books where the number of other poets is small or the number of Causley poems included is significant.
